New Milford Police Department Honor Guard

Submitted by Lt. John McGrath (ret.)

The Honor Guard regularly attends the Bergen County Police Memorial Ceremonies in Mahwah, N.J. , and the State of New Jersey ceremony held in Ocean Grove, N.J. each spring.

The Honor Guard also represents the Department at various police funerals throughout the area. Current members of the Honor Guard are:
